Jump Research Making Technical Leaps and Bounds

Researchers and doctors met for the first time Monday to showcase a new collaboration. Engineers from UI are partnering with doctors at Jump Simulation, in Peoria. They’re working on a $50 million project to advance medical technology.

Monday’s symposium was to show others what’s been going on. Some people in the audience were from local companies which can turn the research into products people can use. Developments here will benefit patients in the hospital as well as at home.
